Yes, I realize it’s Foto Friday and I normally put up something pretty, thought provoking or fun – but this week I thought I’d just put up something that provokes me.

This is a photo of what I call my cord drawer. This is the top drawer of my filing cabinet that sits next to my desk. Now, I’d love to keep handy things in there like office supplies, files, paper for the printer…

BUT NO….

Every other week the cords take over. I swear, I clean this drawer at least twice a month and the moment I’m not looking, gremlins get in there, tangle up the cords to ensure I can’t find anything. I gave up keeping much of anything in that drawer because it just gets caught in the cords, flipped out of the drawer and onto the floor.

Do you think it’s a conspiracy? Are the cords trying to form a union and take control of my filing cabinet?

Cheeky monkeys. Today I’m armed with zip ties and labels, we’ll see who wins this battle!
